Who's the BOSS?

NO BLOG entry yesterday, as it was a fun filled family day, with my mother cooking lunch for 11 of us, what a star! I have to say I think Sunday lunch is my favourite meal of the week. Piles of roast meat and even higher piles of Yorkshire Puds - what's your favourite meal and why?

Today (Monday) I began the laborious prices of filling out the online application for my NHS bursary. It seemed to take ages to get to the point where I've left it, I couldn't quite finish it for the sake of my sanity. I'll go back to it tomorrow but I'm going to have to give details of my fiancee's earnings which is likely to result in me getting very little. Despite the fact that we don't have any savings and pretty much live hand to mouth. Don't you just love the government, on the one hand they try to help by paying tuition fees, but on the other hand everything else is so expensive that it is very difficult to make the commitment to further study when you have the responsibilities of a 'normal life'. I'm sure www. Get through it, as well as part for a wedding, but there'll be many who do and fall by the wayside, having to give up on their dreams.

Please Sir, can I have some money?


TODAY I was hoping to have received my invite to begin my bursary application - but no, it hasn't arrived! I'm not sure what that means but I hope that I'll receive my funding in time before the uni starts to ask questions about fees as I certainly can't afford to pay those myself.

In other news today, I've been to the Metrocentre shopping with my fiancee. And for a change I only bought one thing for myself, a new food flask. The excitement eh? Just need some decent weather to get out in to the middle of nowhere to use it.
